Saw Hegseth at a commitee hearing. Seems he will keep saying everything is worthwhile to stop Iran getting a nuclear weapon.

Seems Trump thinks the blockade may go on for months, Adam! Says it is working better than bombs!

He said he is in no rush to make a deal. Neither are Iran.

Assume the 2000+ ships in the Strait of Hormuz have enough food.

Still can't work out what the US were trying to achieve. Just from air strikes.

Will bombing Iran result in regime change? No. There are layers upon layers of people in the regime.

Would bombing Iran result in an uprising? No.

Will bombing Iran result in them giving up there Nuclear equipment? No. It will make them more determined to keep it.

Will bombing Iran result in them taking over the Strait of Homuz? Yes.

Can America put boots on the ground? No.

Can America bomb infrastructure? Yes but won't benefit them & is a war crime.

Were Iran negotiating pre Feb 28th? Yes.

Will Trump now have to make major new concessions in a deal? Yes. Unlikely he will be able to face that.

Will Iran become 500 million pounds richer a day if they start a toll service? Yes.

Trump is saying he has destroyed Iran's military. He wants them to hand over uranium and stop any nuclear programme.

This means Iran would have no defence. Which is not realistic for a country so big. Israel could atrack them at any time with or without America's help.

I don't think anyone knows how long the West can manage on existing fuel stocks, fertiliser, helium and petrochemicals. But if Iran can't export its oil it will have to cap its wells, plus if they have no income the IRGC may become jittery and turn against the leadership.

I wonder who will blink first. https://www.jns.org/opinion/column/jonathan-s-tobin/defeating-irans-regime-requires-patience-but-shouldnt-take-forever?utm_campaign=Daily%20Syndicate%20Emails&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8jNlu6V0ew66MkZeVjPIdKEveJ-V0dAOC9U3VGHAPM_wIRC3Im7tZv5j_o1FRa3r9ZcV2dKVRHTrvKfy73su6d8KMp102OnucWT2EXZj19Toh6upI&_hsmi=134810902&utm_content=134810902&utm_source=hs_email

Trump is now saying Iran have not paid enough for the last 47 years.

I thought America had invaded several countries in that time.

Rubio is on tape saying Israel were about to attack Iran by themselves. Which would have resulted in Iran attacking America.

Not sure how he worked that out.

He is on tape again denying he said that. Although it is on tape.

Trump said America had 'totally obliterated' Iran's nuclear building facility a few months ago. With a couple of bunker busters. If only it was that easy.

A few months later & Iran had somehow totally recovered & were about to drop a nuclear weapon on America. For no reason

America had been negotiating with Iran for decades. It was always going to be continuous.

Trump helps Israel bomb Iran & then demands they hand over there Uranium. So they literally have no defence.

Trump said he is cancelling 'Project Freedom' after a day as they are close to making a deal.

Nothing to do with 'Project Freedom' being impossible to do.

He said that just before the markets opened on Monday. The negotiations are due to last (you guessed it) Monday - Friday.

Iran said no negotiations are taking place.

An ex WHF staff member said Obama & Netanyahu had a shouting match at The White House. Obama refusing to go to war with Israel.

Netanyahu would always give the same narrative - Iran were on the brink of getting a nuclear weapon.

Seems Trump listened to him & decided on the bunker buster bombs a few months ago. Netanyahu kept pressing & got his reward on Feb 28th.
